Nearly every museum is the same, "look, don't touch." Not so at the Manitou Cliff Dwellings Museum. Located five minutes from our Manitou Springs hotel, at the outdoor exhibits, visitors are encouraged to reach out and touch ancient Anasazi buildings. You can actually go through the structure that has been carved into the side of the mountain, explore the authentic Anasazi structures, investigate the Pueblo-style buildings and traditional clay oven, and examine the pottery, tools, and weapons used by these ancient and mysterious peoples. The museum also connects to a multi-level gift shop with more museum rooms within the shop. So wander back through time, and see life the way the ancient Anasazi did.
